    Dustin Johnson walked away from the Masters with a first-place prize of $2.07 million. The green jacket adds to an already big 2020 for Johnson, who took home $15 million for winning the FedEx Cup in September. 

    Since turning professional in 2007, Johnson has now made more than $70 million in career PGA Tour winnings. He currently sits at No. 5 on the all-time money list, behind Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh.

    As the World No. 1 golfer, Johnson earns an estimated $11 million a year in endorsements.
